Best European Restaurants in Huntington Beach

WOW… what an incredible experience! Everything was phenomenal, from the appetizers to the main courses. The Beef Wellington was delicious, the Prime Rib was absolutely outstanding, and every bite was better than the last! If you’re visiting Downtown Disney, I HIGHLY recommend giving this place a try! The food, atmosphere, and overall experience were top-notch! A BIG shout out to our waiter Doug! Super knowledgeable about the restaurant and the menu! He had a great sense of humor as well. Great food, great company, and memories made around the table. Doesn’t get much better than that! Cheers!

If you haven't been here- it's a must! The moment you walk it, the team treats you like family. The food is Michelin experience with elements of surprises and fine details that make the dishes cohesive and balanced. We tried the prefix dinner menu, the Curator option, and it's out of this world. Every dish is authentic and yet unique. Our waiter, Luca, is kind and genuine. He took the time to go over the dishes and provided references to Tuscany as if we were there. The manager, Antonio, is welcoming and provided a joyful atmosphere. Thank you for a lovely evening! We will be back!

Always a wonderful meal and service is outstanding ! Great way to celebrate a birthday.

NICE RACK! Now that you're reading, LOL, Christakis is often referred to a " a local gem". Sounds a little corner maybe, but it actually true. I want to point out something, something missing in 2026 that should not be allowed to stay missed = honestly, loyalty, respect and darn right hard labor. Mike and his sisters keep grinding at the labor of love to open Christakis daily. As a small business owner with 45 years under my belt...the gray hair is well earned. Many of MY business peers have passed, moved or just quit. We have survived cancel culture and extreme vulnerability from social media reviews LIKE THIS, that can turn the owners stomach and actually lead to a business death before it's time. I recently heard a man in his 30's talk about how seriously hard dating is. Gee...let's see, lies online, no patients, AI fakes, years of pitting the sexes against one another. No brand, friend or company loyalties. Stupid house wife programs that promote BS attitudes and back stabbing for the world...why would younger ( and my age ) folks have a difficult time making relationships that are real and can last? truth is...the struggle is VERY real. So...to my point. I just made a dinner reservation through open table. Just to eat and enjoy the efforts of a long work week. I Show up to a sign proclaiming my birthday! No one asked for that. Mike remembered...found out...I don't care. The THOUGHT was the win. Jaime was out server and greeted us with our favorite drinks even before we got seated. How wonderful to be treated like friends, family and respected like almost royalty...just by going out to eat. It's all on Mike, his sisters and a very hard working and committed crew, that I won't list all...but we know each other. Folks...get to "know" The Christakis family and enjoy the food too! Who will continue the legend when they get tired or age out? We must value those that put everything into everyday. Love you Mike, Sara, Katrina and the crew. Blessings
